Looking at Pictures: An Introduction to Art for Young People
reviewed on + 1775 more book reviews


This does not include 20th C. art or even the Impressionists, but is very good for 'classical' paintings. It is lavishly illustrated and divided into sections such as 'Still Lifes.' It opens with a discussion of what goes on behind the scenes.
It was actually kept on the shelf at this small branch library for twenty years before being discarded to the sale shelf and shows signs of having been circulated. (Unfortunately, too many books are ignored by patrons and discarded after two or three years).
Index.
Not wish listed by any PBS comrade, so I will save my quarter dollar and return it to the sale shelf for someone else to have.
